Install the latest security software<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<p>It is always a good idea to install good antivirus software in your system as the World Wide Web is full of malware, spam, and spyware.

Use passwords that are hard to crack<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<p>Majority of the people use common passwords for several transactions including sensitive transactions like net banking and credit cards for the convenience of recollecting which ultimately poses a threat to their password security. Ensure to use alphanumeric passwords for all different transactions.<\/p>\r\n<h3><strong>3. Don\u2019t Use a public Wi-Fi connection while doing online transactions<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<p>Always make sure to use your personal computers, and mobile phones to make any kind of transaction. Also, ensure that you always connect to the internet using a secured Wi-Fi connection that is password protected.

Don\u2019t Respond to emails asking about your details<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<p>Any promotional emails asking for your bank details should be ignored and reported as spam. Remember that your bank will never ask for your bank credentials.<\/p>\r\n<h3><strong>5. Don\u2019t Respond to emails offering you discounts<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<p>You might be getting a lot of promotional emails from retail companies. But while utilizing such offers, it is always recommended to go directly to the seller\u2019s site rather than entering details in the coupon link, which is usually sent by third parties.<\/p>\r\n<h3><strong>6. Check the website&#8217;s SSL certificate<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<p>A lot of small vendors do not incorporate security mechanisms which may compromise your security. So, it\u2019s always advisable to make online transactions on websites that begin with \u201chttps\u201d. Do not trust websites that begin with \u201chttp\u201d, this means that the website isn\u2019t using proper encryption.<\/p>\r\n<h3><strong>7.
